Show presence!
Emperor Zhu Da was stunned by Song Qingyuan's suggestion and motioned for him to continue.
"This time of civil strife in Japan, no matter who wins or loses, there will always be a result. What we need is to prepare in advance. When the time is right, that is, when one side loses, we can persuade it to accept our assistance.
, and then we can send troops to intervene openly, well, just like His Majesty did in Chile..."
As soon as he finished speaking, Emperor Zhu Da laughed loudly.
"Indeed, I am impressed. Now our Ming Dynasty just needs Wu Sangui. However, this Xixiang will definitely not lead heavenly troops into Japan. We still have to find a way in Tokyo. Although he is a hero of the reform, but...
…”
Emperor Zhu Da smiled.
After all, they are still politicians, and they know what choices they should make. Even Yin Teng Bowen and others, in the final analysis, they are still politicians, and they will make the choice that is best for themselves.
No matter who has tasted power, they will not let go easily. In order to retain power, sometimes some people will do whatever it takes.
"The display existence you are talking about is..."
"Your Majesty, just remind them that Ming Dynasty can help them at any time! If we don't show our existence! How can the losing side think of us?"
Song Yuanqing's words made Emperor Zhu nodded with deep approval.
"That's true, but there must be some excuse for this display to exist."
If you want to interfere in the internal affairs of other countries, you have to come up with an excuse, even if it is washing powder. That is still an excuse. How can you have an excuse without a tube of washing powder?
After thinking for a while, Emperor Zhu Da said.
"In my opinion, we can send troops to Japan to protect overseas Chinese."
Go to Japan to protect overseas Chinese?
When a war breaks out in a country, it is completely normal in this era for another country to send their troops to the local area to protect their overseas Chinese. Of course, it is not necessary to fire artillery or send troops ashore when arriving at the local area. It is just that
It is just as a show of strength, or to show one's own existence, to make the other party restrain themselves and not dare to harm the citizens of other countries.
This is the public international law of this era. Ming Dynasty is a country that abides by the rules of international games.
Moreover, for the outside world, sending troops there in the name of protecting overseas Chinese is the easiest way to hide the situation, and it is almost impossible to attract the attention of the outside world.
Sending troops to Japan has nothing to do with feelings, but interests.
Whether from the perspective of obtaining precious resources such as imperial consumables or from the perspective of turning the Pacific Ocean into the Great Ocean, Emperor Zhu Da really wanted to take down Japan.
Of course, Emperor Zhu Da wanted to have a "Orchid Sleeping on Mount Fuji".
Time is also destiny.
As a place where the Ming Dynasty has existed since ancient times, Japan's fate has been decided.
For the happiness of the Japanese people, they need the intervention of the Ming Dynasty! After all, the intervention of the Daimyo is not only to protect their own expatriates, but also to protect ordinary people in Japan from the flames of war.
This kind of humanitarian relief is relatively high-end when you think about it.
The protection of overseas Chinese was very easy to pass. It didn't even need to go through a public meeting. The fleet was dispatched. However, it was not just the fleet that was dispatched, but also 10,000 land troops.
They will be stationed in Ryukyu first, and then take action. After all, you can't just send troops to Japan right away.
"Your Majesty, are you really a protector of overseas Chinese?"
Zuo Zongtang looked at His Majesty with some doubts, "Do you need to go to war to protect overseas Chinese in such a big way?"
Looking at Prime Minister Zuo with a smile, Emperor Zhu asked:
"What else do you think?"
Zuo Zongtang thought for a while and then replied:
"Your Majesty, China is my homeland in China, and we cannot allow foreigners to occupy it. If our Ming Dynasty wants to regain China, we should first take Liaodong. Liaodong is very empty. I think that if we want to take Liaodong, we must take Korea, Japan, and so on.
The two places are a springboard. If the Ming Dynasty can take advantage of this opportunity to seize Japan, there will be no need to worry about failure!"
A great cause, that is the great cause of restoration!
For Zuo Zongtang and others, no matter how much territory they develop overseas, it is better to return home!
Why does my hometown smell better?
Wealth and honor do not return home, just like walking in brocade at night.
This is true for ordinary people, not to mention the Prime Minister of the Left.
Besides, there is another obsession in his heart, and that is orthodoxy!
As long as the Manchus and Qing Dynasties still occupy China, they can say that they are orthodox to a certain extent. Even if the Ming Dynasty occupies the whole world, as long as they do not return to China one day, they cannot openly and openly say that they are orthodox.
After all, Chinese orthodoxy is in China.
Of course, these are just some of their obsessions. For Emperor Zhu Da, they have no influence at all.
Regarding Prime Minister Zuo's suggestion, Emperor Zhu Da just laughed and said:
"Great cause, why should we limit our sights to China? Man... we have ambitions in all directions!"
After saying that, Emperor Zhu Da walked forward with a smile, talking as he walked.
"Those unfilial sons should be impatient. Let me meet them!"
Who is the unfilial son?
Of course it is the North Korean mission. They have been in Ming Dynasty for several months. In the past few months, they have been visiting various places in Ming Dynasty. While visiting, of course they also asked again and again when His Majesty the Emperor will summon him.
ah.
Now that these unfilial sons have almost done their thing, it's time to meet them.
In fact, there is no such thing as a filial son or a rebellious son. In short, a filial son will emerge from the stick!
Finally met the emperor of tomorrow.
But how could this emperor do this?
He wasn't even wearing a dragon robe...but he was the emperor of the Ming Dynasty after all!
"Your Majesty, Liu Chongjiao and Jin Yujun, ministers of the Joseon Dynasty, wish to see your Majesty, long live my emperor, long live, long live!"
They knelt down. Even though Daming did not kneel down, they still knelt down. When they knelt down, Liu Chongjiao, Jin Yujun and the others suddenly burst into tears.
There was a chorus of crying, as if the wanderer had returned to his mother's arms after a long absence. Perhaps only the crying could express their inner thoughts!
Emperor Zhu Da looked at these people who were crying like tears and asked.
"Why are you like this?"
"Your Majesty, I have not admired Tianyan for a long time, but today I can admire Tianyan. Even if I die, I will not be shaken."
While speaking, Liu Chongjiao burst into tears again.
"It has been more than two hundred years since the "Bingzi chaos" that the small country has not seen the emperor of the Ming Dynasty. Today, it is hard to help itself when it can see the mother country of the Ming Dynasty restored to its kingdom..."
Filial piety moves heaven!
These are the words of a filial son of the Ming Dynasty. Different from the Japanese who put aside their relationship, the Koreans are eager to show their identity as soon as they come up - I am a vassal of the Ming Dynasty, and the Ming Dynasty is my father and my mother. They are closer than father and mother.
If it had been any other emperor, he would have been so moved that he personally stepped forward to help these filial sons, but the problem was that Emperor Zhu Da was different from them!
Facing these filial sons, Emperor Zhu Da sighed and said.
"You are surprised by what you said. Although the name of Korea was given by our Emperor Gao of the Ming Dynasty, and the country was re-created by our Emperor Shenzong of the Ming Dynasty. "Bingzi was indiscriminate." Although China was in chaos, Emperor Liezong still sent troops to rescue it. It is a pity that
, North Korea had surrendered to the Qing Dynasty at that time, and it has been 237 years since the Qing Dynasty in North Korea. Although I, the Ming Dynasty, are the old masters of North Korea, since North Korea has recognized thieves as its fathers for many years, there is no need to perform this grand ceremony."
Emperor Zhu Da's words were not loud, and his tone was full of helplessness, but in the ears of Liu Zhongjiao and others, it was like a thunderbolt. There was only one thought left in their minds - Dad Ming doesn't want me anymore.
!
Oh my God!
Dad Ming no longer wants North Korea!
In an instant, as if the sky had fallen, Liu Zhongjiao was stunned. He raised his head in horror and looked at the Ming Emperor in great shock.
How could Dad Ming not want North Korea?
Without Ming’s father, it is like without the sun and moon. If there is no sun and moon between heaven and earth, is it still heaven and earth?
How could this be?
How could Dad Ming not want us?
Could it be that Ming Dynasty’s father didn’t see that North Korea’s filial piety can be represented by the sun and the moon?
"ah!"
Suddenly, Liu Chongjiao burst into tears, and he knelt down and kowtowed repeatedly.
"Although North Korea surrendered to the Qing Dynasty during the "Bingzi Rebellion", the Qing Dynasties were just "dogs and sheep barbarians". In North Korea's heart, only the Ming Dynasty was the country of Korea's parents, but it has never dared to forget the mother of the Ming Dynasty for more than two hundred years.
Although North Korea was founded in this country, it is like an orphan who has lost its parents. Every time I think of the Heavenly Kingdom, my heart breaks... We all in Korea pray day and night for the restoration of China and the restoration of the Ming Dynasty. The great kings and ministers of all dynasties all regard the Northern Expedition as the
I have been appointed, but I can only hate it. The people of Korea are poor and weak, and they cannot repay the kindness of the motherland. Today, even if I can see my motherland, my foreign ministers will not be able to atone for the crime of admitting a thief and being a father in the future. I only ask the motherland not to abandon Korea and ignore it.
, Although North Korea has gone retrograde, it has not missed its motherland every day for two hundred and thirty-seven years. Now that the Ming Dynasty has abandoned North Korea, how can millions of officials and people in North Korea have the dignity to survive in the world..."
Liu Zhongjiao, who was crying on the ground, no longer had any dissatisfaction with Ming Dynasty for failing to promote Chinese culture, only fear - if Ming Dynasty's father doesn't want me, North Korea will become an outcast!
No, dad can't let me go.
Dad, I am your good son. I am from North Korea. Dad, please love me again!
